Chapter 442 The gifted female singer arrives

"Is this slander? The examples are all here." As she said that, Xia Zhining glanced at Xiao Yunxi again. This was a living example.

And Ning Wan.

And in a sense, Han Anniang also counts.

Xiao Yunxi's face turned red when she saw it.

Xia Zhining continued: "So it doesn't matter if I just do what I want."

Chen Mo: "..."

"This is a misunderstanding, and I didn't let him give it away. You made me commit a big crime by doing this." Chen Mo argued hard for himself.

"Really, if it's a misunderstanding, then when they come, you send them back, I will treat it as a misunderstanding, and I will kowtow to you personally to apologize. You can torment me however you want." Xia Zhining was very happy. He said confidently.

Chen Mo: "..."

"Ahem." Chen Mo coughed twice and avoided Xia Zhining's gaze with a guilty conscience. Although he said slander, he was full of expectations for the former queen and princess given by Lu Sheng.

After hearing the news, King Huai was furious again. Fortunately, he didn't faint this time.

Everyone is strong-willed, men and women alike.

Even if it is unwise for him to offend Lu Sheng in the current situation, he is the Song Dynasty vassal king and a member of the royal family. If he ignores this matter in the palace, wouldn't it be acquiescing to the legitimacy of King Qi's succession? , this is obviously inappropriate

"That's it?" King Huai looked at the soldiers who reported the report displeased. The last thing he wanted to hear now was Chen Mo's name, especially since the other party had received a reward.

Do you want to say such harsh words?

He quickly changed the subject and said seriously: "Lu Sheng killed his father and asked the emperor to abdicate and King Qi to succeed. When the news spreads, all forces will inevitably move. We must be prepared. We haven't mobilized troops for more than half a year. It’s time to organize a large-scale military exercise.”

For him, if Lu Sheng just killed Xu Guozhong, it would be a great good thing.

The facts are just as Chen Mo said.

It's just that Chen Momuqiang's method is different.

If this was not what Lu Sheng was threatening, King Huai would not believe it.

Xia Zhining immediately smiled like I've seen through you a long time ago.

Who doesn’t have a fantasy yet?

Toyosu.

But now, the emperor has abdicated and King Qi has succeeded.

"Well, Lu Sheng sent the girl as a show of goodwill. If I give it back, I won't accept his goodwill. It will definitely make him think that I have a problem with him. The current situation is so complicated. There are King Huai and Chong in the south. King, there is a Longyou Yuezhi in Xishang, and it will be detrimental to us if we have a grudge with Lu Sheng." Chen Mo explained seriously.

As long as I think of the former queen and princess, being suppressed by myself...

"Two of the female musicians, one is the former Queen Xu, and the other is Princess Zhaoqing." said the soldier who reported.

After all, she is a person who has been a queen and princess, so where does her identity lie?

He immediately asked his staff to draft a petition against Lu Sheng, expressing his intention to welcome back the emperor Chu Nan.

"By the way, Your Majesty, there is news from the palace that several marquises from Pingting County will be given to them." The person who reported the news hesitated for a moment and then said it.

At this time, the expression on Prince Huai's face suddenly became ugly.

Although he does not recognize Xu as the queen, as a woman of the emperor, this is a fact and she is related to the royal family.

Not to mention Princess Zhaoqing.

Therefore, giving it to Chen Mo would, in a sense, damage his face.

He knew that the Xu family and Princess Zhaoqing were closely connected to the Xu family. Now that Xu Guozhong was killed, the Xu family would definitely be implicated.
King Huai pondered for a while and said, "Has the palace pardoned the crimes of Mrs. Xu and Princess Zhaoqing?" "Not yet."

"That is not bad."

King Huai nodded and did not pardon the two people's crimes. Then the two were just a concubine, a female singer. From a legal point of view, they had nothing to do with the royal family.

Lu Sheng finally saved some face for the royal family.

Same as King Huai.

King Chong, King Anping, and the vassal kings of all sizes who had some soldiers in their hands publicly stated that they wanted to denounce Lu Sheng.

Xu Ying and the others did not receive news as quickly as they did.

They arrived in the area under Xiangyang's jurisdiction on May 10th and had not yet entered the city, but the news that they were given to Chen Mo had already spread around Xiangyang.

The person who sent Xu Ying and the others over was Lu Sheng's personal soldier, and the order they received was handed over to Chen Mo himself.

In order to better complete the tasks assigned by Lu Sheng.

After learning that Chen Mo was at the school grounds outside the city, Lu Sheng's soldiers directly asked people to take them to the school grounds.

"Turn the first drum to the right, and the second drum to the left. If you beat the drum continuously to advance, and if you ring the gold, you will retreat. If you make a mistake in the drill, you will be punished with a cane and you will not be allowed to eat at night. Did you hear that?" A deep and clear voice suddenly sounded in the school grounds.

"heard it."

The chorus of thousands of people shook the heavens and the earth, deafening the ears.

"Dong dong dong" the drum sounded.

Xu Ying and Princess Zhaoqing both opened the curtains and looked at the soldiers who were lining up neatly out of the school grounds not far away.

They had serious faces and a murderous air about them.

"Who are you? This is an important military area. No one can get close to it." While Xu Ying and the others were watching, a soft drink came from not far away.

Xu Ying and the others quickly lowered the car curtain.

"We are the Prime Minister's people. We are ordered by the Prime Minister to hand over the female musicians given to the Taiwei in the palace." Lu Sheng's personal soldier said quickly and took out something to prove his identity from his arms.

The guards had heard about this and hurriedly asked them to stay here while the marquis went in to pass the news.

After the guards at the school grounds left, Xu Ying and the others raised the car curtains to watch.

At this time, the army that had left the school grounds stopped and formed a line to fight. The dense mass of spears and halberds covered the sky above their heads. The sabers hanging from their waists stretched to the end of the field of vision, bringing the warm wind of early summer with them. A bit chilling.

The solemn military power is like a tornado condensed between heaven and earth. The slightest movement can destroy everything in front of it.

Although Xu Ying is a woman, as the daughter of Xu Guozhong, she still knows a little about military affairs. She knows whether an army is strong or not, including soldiers, armor, military power and discipline.

But the troops in front of us had strict orders and prohibitions, all members were wearing armor, the military discipline was strict, and the momentum was magnificent.

No wonder.
A glimpse of one spot tells the whole story. At the first glance of this army, Xu Ying understood why Huaizhou was captured.

And what kind of person should Chen Mo be who leads this army.

Xu Ying looked forward to Chen Mo for the first time.

The so-called tiger father has no dog daughter, Xu Ying, like her father, likes the feeling of having power in her hands and controlling the power of life and death of others.

So when her father found her and asked her to enter the palace, she agreed without hesitation.

It was just that she was still relatively new to the world at that time, and she never expected that the most powerful and aloof emperor would actually be a weak and incompetent man with no power at all.

Therefore, even if she became a queen later on, she would not be able to experience the scenery that a real queen should have.
